If you’re like many people, you may be looking for ways to reduce the amount of smoke you inhale. In recent years, vaporizers have become a popular way to do just that. While there are many different types of vaporizers on the market, dry herb vaporizers, like the extremely popular Boundless CFX+, are some of the most common. If you’re new to vaping or just want to get the most out of your dry herb vaporizer, following these six tips will help.

Remember to Clean the Device

The very first tip on this list for getting the most out of your dry herb vaporizer is to remember to clean the device regularly. Many people often forget to maintain their dry herb vaporizers and often suffer from poor taste and reduced performance.

After a few uses, the chamber of a dry herb vaporizer will get sticky from resin and accumulate pieces of cannabis that weren’t vaporized. This will cause your coil and battery to work harder than they need to, reducing not only the longevity of your device but also the quality of the vapor produced. You should also consider cleaning the mouthpiece for the sake of hygiene.

Use the Correct Temperature

The next tip on this list to get the most out of your vape, which is particularly helpful for those new to using the devices, would be to use the correct temperature settings. Did you know dry herb vaporizers allow you to customize your high? And it’s as simple as changing the temperature.

This is because different cannabinoids are activated at different temperatures. More cannabinoids are activated at higher temperatures, and fewer are activated at lower temperatures. In other words, the higher the temperature, the more intense the experience. If you want to only get a small buzz, all you need to do is lower the temperature.

Try Using a Convection Vape

When it comes to dry herb vaporizers, there are many different types you can get. If you want to get the most out of your device, a great tip would be to use a convection vaporizer. Convection vaporizers circulate hot air around the cannabis in the chamber until it is vaporized, compared to combustion vaporizers that require the cannabis to contact the heating element.

Why are convection vaporizers better? Because they allow you to stop vaping halfway through your session and resume whenever you want. They also ensure that basically all of the cannabis is vaporized. You have to finish the chamber, and there’s no guarantee all of the cannabis will be vaporized.

Pack the Chamber Perfectly

You might not have thought about packing the chamber, which you should also do carefully to get the most out of your dry herb vaporizer. If you pack the device too tightly, you might end up restricting the airflow from the chamber, resulting in very tight hits and a lot of wasted cannabis. More importantly, packing the chamber too tightly might damage your device in the long run, so it’s best to pack it tight but not too tight.

Grind the Cannabis

One of the most important tips to get the most out of your dry herb vaporizer is to grind the cannabis effectively before putting it in the chamber. Grinding actually increases its surface area, which means that the heat generated from the vaporizer can penetrate it more effectively.

This doesn’t mean you should grind it too much since you don’t want to make it into a powder; this won’t vaporize and might damage the device. In addition, only grind what you are going to use; cannabis that has been ground will dry out very quickly.

Don’t Inhale Too Hard

Finally, the last tip on this list to get the most out of your device would be not to inhale too hard. If you inhale too hard, you actually risk sucking some cannabis out of the chamber and into your mouth, which is very unpleasant.  In addition, inhaling too hard will reduce the temperature of the chamber because you are introducing cold air, making the device work harder than it needs to.
